.
i just wish i could know the me that everyone else sees.
i wanna see the me that people see as a safe space,
the me that people look up to,
the me that people fall in love with.
i want to see someone i wouldn’t hate every time i go to wash my face and see myself in the mirror.
the one who doesn’t cry every night.
the one who sleeps.
i wanna see the beautiful person i hear so much about.

the one who doesn’t cry every night.
the one who sleeps.
i wanna see the beautiful person i hear so much about.
until i get to actually see that me, everything good i hear about me is a lie
